प्रश्न
A body is moving along a circular path of radius r. What will be the distance and displacement of the body when it completes:
Full revolution
उत्तर
Distance travelled is =perimeter of circle.
So distance travelled is =2π r.
Displacement =0 as starting and ending point are coinciding.

Is displacement a scalar quantity ?
What is the difference between distance travelled by a body and its displacement ? Explain with the
help of a diagram.
A body at rest is made to fall from the top of a tower. Its displacement at different instants is given in the following table:
| Time (in s) | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.6 |
| Displacement (in m) | 0.05 | 0.20 | 0.45 | 0.80 | 1.25 | 1.80 |
Draw a displacement-time graph and state whether the motion is uniform or non-uniform?
Figure (a) shows the velocity-time graph for the motion of a body. Use it to find the displacement of the body at t = 1 s, 2 s, 3 s and 4 s, then draw on Figure (b), the displacement-time graph for it.

A ball moves on a smooth floor in a straight line with uniform velocity 10 m s-1 for 6 s. At t = 6 s, the ball hits a wall and comes back along the same line to the starting point with the same speed. Draw the velocity-time graph and use it to find the total distance travelled by the ball and its displacement.
A body starts from rest with uniform acceleration 2 m s-2. Find the distance covered by the body in 2 s.
A car travels a distance 100 m with constant acceleration and average velocity of 20 ms-1. The final velocity acquired by the car is 25 ms-1.
Find
(i) The initial velocity.
(ii) Acceleration of the car.
Define Displacement.
Displacement is the ______ distance covered by a body.
Displacement magnitude can be greater than the distance traveled by the object.
